"Hey... an outsider who doesn't understand anything." Gilgamesh, who was walking in front, stopped, turned his head and said in a contemptuous arrogance, "Nippur is the city of the gods of the gods, and everyone believes that The kingdom of kingship, Lagash is a prosperous country, with unparalleled prosperity, do you think Uruk can stop the aggression of these two countries?"

"Huh?" Qiye was not afraid of Gilgamesh's anger, and asked directly, "As a king, do you think Uruk doesn't have the ability to handle it?"

Gilgamesh, whose face was blushing strangely, laughed, and his frantic laughter attracted the attention of the nearby crowd, "This king's Uruk has a solid city wall and heroic and burly warriors, how could he think that Uruk couldn't resist the invaders."

"This king will not only resist, but also fight back! By annexing Nippur, Lagash, and even other cities, this king will become the sole ruler of the southern Mesopotamia plain!"

When the nearby residents heard Gilgamesh's arrogant words, they couldn't help raising their arms and cheering for their king.

Qiye looked at Gilgamesh, and his eyes flashed a slight smile. This is the Gilgamesh he saw in the eyes of the gods. He was arrogant and arrogant, but he led the soldiers and residents of Uruk. , let these arrogant vows come true.

Twenty years later, Gilgamesh defeated the army from Nippur, annexed Lagash, and built a new city named 'Babylon' on the basis of that city.

When Qiye returned home, Semiramis, who was full of joy, came out to greet her, but her joy soon disappeared, because not only Qiye came back alone, but also with a blushing face [? ? ] of Gilgamesh.

The guards were guarding outside Qiye's house and did not come in, while Gilgamesh followed Qiye into his mansion alone.

And Gilgamesh was stunned by the decorations in the Seven Nights Mansion. The surrounding walls and pillars were made of intricately carved pure white stone pillars, which looked clean and white.

The house is decorated with classical furniture, and the exquisite silk cushions are spread in it. There are flowers blooming everywhere in the house, and the noble, elegant and warm atmosphere is naturally revealed.

The golden shells and large pearls are inlaid on the roof. If night falls and a bright lamp is lit in the house, the light will be reflected by the shells and pearls, just like the beautiful scene of countless stars falling.

Looking at the interior of such a beautiful mansion, Gilgamesh couldn't help but feel a sense of tranquility and comfort in his heart, and there was some unnaturalness. Although the palace he lived in was magnificent, compared with this place...it always felt like the difference between local tyrants and nobles .

This is the home that Semiramis and Qiye carefully decorated together. Neither of them knows how much effort they put into this home.

As for those golden shells and large pearls, they were all walking on the beach for seven nights, and they jumped out inexplicably...

It's like the offerings that the devout believers are offering to the gods.

Actually, that's not the case. Even the omniscient and omnipotent Goddess Ningsong can't see the identity of Qiye. How could other things find out the identity of the son of Natiamat in Qiye?

It was because Qiye wanted to quickly solve the reason why he needed money, so he obtained things that could be exchanged for money from the sea.

Gilgamesh was surrounded by a large number of people, and Qiye took Semiramis' small hand and took her to the side and whispered.

"Our king took a fancy to the wine we brewed and bought it with this precious jade, so what do you think of the little pigeon?"

Both brewing and distilling liquor have a share of Semiramis, so Qiye asked Semiramis for his opinion.

"I have an opinion." Semiramis raised her face, the priceless lapis lazuli jade or something is completely unimportant, she can't let others take away the wine that she and Qiye worked so hard to brew!

"Well, I also know you don't want to, but if you don't want to, Gilgamesh will empty our house, and even the pearls we inlaid on the ceiling yesterday will be deducted by him." Qi Ye is serious. pointed to the ceiling above.

"..." Semiramis' face twitched, this is even worse! This has poured their heart and soul into it even more! So I can only sacrifice those wines...

"Don't talk about this king like a bandit, bring some wine, this king will have a few drinks at your house, and then you have to return to the palace." Gilgamesh glanced at Qiye's back.

"Huh? What about buying wine?"

"Hmph, this king will let the chief priest come over to discuss with you, and I will buy wine from you at a reasonable price, and make those fine wines as tribute to the palace, but you must always provide it." Gilgamesh snorted coldly.

So, not buying all the wine, but don't expect to get the priceless price of lapis lazuli.

Part 24 Chapter 24

"What about this precious jade?" Qiye shook the lapis lazuli gem in his hand towards Gilgamesh.

"The reward for inviting this king to drink, do you think this king will take back what was thrown out?!"

Oh~ this king is still as generous and generous as always~

Gilgamesh did not buy all the wines brewed by Seven Nights and Semiramis at sky-high prices, but chose to have the chief priest Siduri come over to discuss with them and buy their wines at reasonable prices, thus establishing trade relations. .

This... From a long-term perspective, several barrels of fine wine can be exchanged for a lapis lazuli gem, and several barrels of fine wine can only be exchanged for some property.

It was a loss for seven nights.

In the courtyard outside Qiye's house, Gilgamesh was very generous and did not regard himself as an outsider, and at the same time... did not regard Qiye and Semiramis as outsiders!

Gilgamesh greeted Qiye to come over to the courtyard for a drink like the host's, and he carelessly instructed Semiramis to go to the kitchen to get the food and drink, and also told him to have beef and mutton, and nothing else.

She was so angry that Semiramis' face turned black, but in order to quickly get this savage tyrant drunk, so that he could be carried away from the house by the soldiers, she personally cooked, mixing wine into every appetizer.

The people who enjoyed this banquet were not only Gilgamesh, but also Qiye who ate and drank with Gilgamesh... Looking at the pile of alcoholic snacks, Qiye felt that his nose was a little blocked. And the appetite is a little churning.

Although fine wine is fine wine, if it is mixed with some messy food, it will make people's eyes dark.

"The woman in your family doesn't seem to know how to cook at all." Gilgamesh, who was sitting in the seat, didn't look very good, and he was probably frightened by the drink...

"Ahem, that's it, that's why I stopped Semiramis from going to the kitchen just now." Qiye said helplessly. In fact, Semiramis' cooking skills are very good.

But ah, among the people who tasted her cooking, in addition to Nanye, there was another Gilgamesh, which is why she made such a bad meal.

"You're really pitiful, do you want this king to find a woman who is good at cooking to take care of you?" said Gilgamesh, who was shaking his glass.

"!" Semiramis in the house instantly became vigilant. After she brought out the appetizers, she left the courtyard over Qiye and returned to the living room beside the courtyard.

"I should have poisoned those dishes... Anyway, Qiye won't be poisoned." Semiramis muttered, she was only too nervous to say this sentence, but she would not really give Gilgamesh Even poisoned.

perhaps…

Cough, after all, he is the king of Uruk. Semiramis thought that poisoning him would cause trouble for Qiye.

Semiramis listened attentively to the voice over there. She was very concerned about how Seven Nights would answer Gilgamesh's joke.

Qiye smiled lightly at Gilgamesh, "Little Pigeon is very good, she handles most of the family's affairs, although she sometimes plays petty and makes me feel a little bit of a headache, but it doesn't matter. It's cute too, so I don't need anyone else to take care of me."

Semiramis in the room laughed happily, Gilgamesh sneered, raised the glass in his hand towards Qiye, knowing Qiye picked up the glass and clink with the king.

At this time, Gilgamesh is no longer the arrogant king of Uruk, but an ordinary person who is addicted to fine wine. The two things of fine wine and time are the best ones that can draw in the relationship between the two of them. thing.

Getting along with the outsider Qiye, Gilgamesh unexpectedly felt relieved. From Qiye, he did not notice the kind of cringe that annoyed him, and he liked this feeling very much.

But the easy time was soon broken. A soldier came in outside the door of Qiye's house. He came to Gilgamesh's side and whispered a few words.

"Huh?" Gilgamesh, with an interested smile, said to the soldier, "Let him come in, this king is going to see what strange mud demon he encountered."

"Yes!" The soldier who received the order walked out, and Gilgamesh only looked at Qiye at this time, "The hunter in the forest south of Uruk found this king, and he said that he met the mud demon there."

"So now you should be honored to lend this place to this king to handle affairs."

"...I can only say, 'Of course I'm honored' now." Qiye shook his head helplessly, you've already done it first, and you haven't asked me if I'd like it...how else can I answer you.

As the soldiers left, a hunter in a strong suit walked down soon. After he stepped into the courtyard where Qiye and Gilgamesh were, his eyes went dark.

The hunter was not frightened by Gilgamesh's prestige, but by the overly strong smell of wine...

"Ahem." The hunter coughed out. He looked suspiciously at Qiye and Gilgamesh in the courtyard. He didn't know who was the king of Uruk.

If it is called wrong, it will be bad.

The empathetic Qiye saw the hunter's predicament, and holding the wine glass, he motioned to Gilgamesh, "This is the king of Uruk, the most generous king."

"That's right, this king is the king of Uruk, so why did you come to the hunter who came to Uruk by climbing the mountains and wading water, hiccup~" Gilgamesh was originally full of majesty and the hunter. Telling his name is taboo, but in the end, he couldn't help but burp when he drank too much.

So the majesty that Gilgamesh revealed was like a balloon with a hole in it, and it was vented... Now Nanye is resisting the urge to laugh.

And the hunter was very suspicious. He suspected that the king of Uruk was as powerful as his father said.

After being harassed by the mud demon, the hunter asked his father for advice, and his father said to him, "In the city of Uruk resides two-thirds of the gods and one-third of the people. The king of God, whose strength is unmatched, and his wisdom as the stars, so go and ask for his help."

So the hunter came to the city of Uruk with curiosity and respect, but... now what he saw, what he saw now was not a majestic king, but a man who was drinking and burping in the daytime. drunkard!

But their wine is **** sweet... excusable, excusable.

"O king of Uruk, I am haunted by a mud demon with a confused human form, he is always wandering in the mountains, he is always grazing with the beasts, he is always soaking the twins in the pond Feet, I'm afraid, I don't dare to lean towards him."

"The trap I dug a long time ago was filled by him, the noose I set was torn off by him, he made the beasts and wild things escape from my hands, and my wild life was disturbed by him."

"So I hope to get a solution from you."

Chapter 25 Chapter 25 You will love each other intimately [Serious face]

"Oh...such a mud demon..." Gilgamesh woke up after hearing the troubles the hunter told him, and after thinking for a while, he said, "You rest in Uruk for a while, After half a day, this king will definitely give you a solution."

"Yes!" The hunter left happily. Although Gilgamesh seemed unreliable just now, his words were full of confidence, so let's wait for half a day.

"A mud demon who walks with beasts..." Qiye murmured, how should he put it, as soon as he heard the vague mud figurine, he remembered his birth on the seventh day.

So Qiye became interested in this clay figurine.

After the hunter left, Gilgamesh narrowed his scarlet eyes slightly, and he said slowly, "This king had a dream a month ago."

The dream is false, but the dream of the gods is real, like a prophecy.

And Gilgamesh is two-thirds **** and one-third human beings, and his dreams also have a prophetic effect.

"What kind of dream is that?" Nanya, who was the listener, cooperated very well and let Gilgamesh continue to speak.

"This king dreamed of the stars in the sky, and a rock fell from the sky. The king in the dream wanted to lift it, but it seemed very heavy, and this king could not lift it, and then the residents of Uruk They came together, and the nobles knelt before the rock and kissed under it in reverence."

"Then this king woke up." Gilgamesh, who narrowed his eyes, drank the wine from the glass in his hand, enjoying the spiciness of the wine.

In fact, Gilgamesh deliberately concealed a small feeling...

That is, "The king in the dream likes this rock very much, just like the husband likes his wife and the wife likes the husband."

Gilgamesh felt ashamed to tell Seven Nights about his feelings about the rock, so he omitted that feeling.

After the pungency brought by the wine passed, Gilgamesh exhaled, and then she continued to say to Qiye, "Then the king went to find the all-powerful and all-knowing mother Goddess Ningsong, hoping to get a solution from her."

"And how did your omnipotent and omniscient mother answer you?" asked Qiye, who became interested.

"Hmph." Gilgamesh snorted coldly, "Mother, she's talking nonsense, she can't be trusted."

Goddess Ningsong's explanation is...

This means that there will be a very strong man coming to you, he has the most powerful strength in this continent, he is the strongest man.

His power rivals even that of the great Anu, and will be your friend because you will love each other intimately.

...cough, it means supporting each other.

"So you think that the mud demon the hunter said is the rock in your dream?" Qiye said thoughtfully.

"That's right, this king has such a guess, so as soon as this king heard about this mud demon walking with beasts, he felt that it was probably the rock in this king's dream."

Gilgamesh grinned, and he directly smashed the wine glass in his hand, "It is not an ordinary mud demon, if nothing else, it was created by the gods when this king was young, and wanted to use it to tie Ben The king's chains."

Enkidu, the weapon of the gods, was created to discipline Gilgamesh.

Gilgamesh is the [Heavenly Wedge] that connects the gods and humans. If this wedge does not fulfill the responsibility of connecting, then the gods will drive the weapons that have been created long ago, and let the weapons discipline Gilgamesh.

"Then you want to get rid of the chains that the gods created for you, right?" Nanye said, looking at Gilgamesh who had smashed the wine glass.

After hearing Qiye's words, Gilgamesh looked at him with a very happy and unexpected look, "You really are different from other people, you dare to say words of rebellion against the gods so directly, you really are..."

"You are a rebel, you are a betrayal, do you hate the gods?"

Gilgamesh's tone was very excited and happy. In this era of reverence and worship of gods, there are other people who resisted gods like him.

Splashy! !

Qiye glanced at Gilgamesh with a happy expression, he calmly retracted his gaze, and filled the empty glass with wine, Qiye said slowly, "I don't hate all the wine. God, some gods are worthy of respect."

"Hey~" Gilgamesh, who was smiling happily, took away the glass that Qiye had filled, and he didn't mind that it was from Qiye, so he just drank it and looked at Qiye, smacking his lips. Without denying that I hate the gods, this king is now more and more curious about your origin."

"I'm just an ordinary person told by my mother, not a big man." Qiye glanced helplessly at the wine glass that Gilgamesh snatched away, and he stretched out the shard of the wine glass that was smashed by Gilgamesh. out.

Qiye's palm gently stroked the fragments of the wine glass, and the broken wine glass was restored. He was Tiamat's tears, the child born after the tears were mixed with the earth.

So whether it's the sea or the earth, Qiye has a way to call them, and it's very easy to repair a porcelain wine glass baked from the soil.

"Hmph." Gilgamesh looked at Qiye, who was unwilling to reveal information with interest, and he didn't care anymore, "Since you are a rebel of the gods, then this king will give you the task of the mud demon. , you go to see that mud demon instead of this king."

"what?"

Qiye was drinking from the restored wine glass, and he immediately refused, "I'm not free, I have to be responsible for building the temple."

"Stop talking nonsense with this king, this king knows what your mission is. Now that the construction of the temple has entered the final stage, you priest is so busy! Let this king check out the mud demon. The situation, in exchange." Gilgamesh gave Qiye a meaningful smile, "This king will make you a priest, and you will be responsible for other things."

"Although it sounds good, I refuse."

Qiye refused Gilgamesh's temptation without hesitation, "I have no interest in power, I just want to live happily and freely, that's all."

"Hahahahaha! It's so funny, you guys haven't penetrated the potential of happiness and freedom, right?"

Gilgamesh laughed wantonly, "Don't think that staying away from everything is the so-called happiness and freedom. In the eyes of this king, the so-called happiness and freedom means that no one can surpass this king."
